Can they just let us know who they're trying to sign now please?
I dont care if it doesnt go ahead or not... I mean it doesnt matter if its not a secret, as no other club can sneak in and sign him
I honestly doubt we have much competition for the players we are in for.
Unless their recruitment team also have a fetish for crocked and bit part players.
Let's face it, we can't compete with championship clubs or top end league one clubs for money or status. With league one we are probably top 6 on choice. Let's face it, we cleared out some of our unwanted players, and we signed 2 unwanted players for a couple of months.
January window has been more about not selling our jewels. Is that showing ambition?
Mate, we have a top4 budget by their own admission. We have also been told of their wealth and their ambition to get this club promoted.
I don't believe hanging on to players is ambitious, as they're under contract. Signing Lloyd Jones was a massive positive, fair play. But respectfully, as a Charlton fan, I have much higher hopes than us competing with Wycombe for the signature of a player already on our books.
I don't care about any players that left, they're all pants (excluding Terry Taylor), fair play for managing to get rid. That still doesn't change the fact those are all signings sanctioned by the same board.
Let's see who this last player is anyway, could change the field.
Not suggesting that it shows ambition, merely posing the question. When the window opened, many were concerned that we would weaken the team by letting one of the 'stars' go. That was a big fear and hasn't happened. That is a small win.
As for ambition, I don't see it. We are arguably the second biggest club in League One behind Brum. The money men had the opportunity to spend before the big caps come in next year and didn't. A clear message that the losses are either being capped at £8m or reduced.
Once again our transfer window is pretty meh. 2 players in ON LOAN, both not stand outs and not been playing week in week out so aren't "wanted" iykwim. 8 players out with a few probably on high wages seeing as they were ex Luton.
No cover for TC and unless Gilbert turns out to be a consistent starter & is a playmaker then we are still short in the creativity department.
Overall 4/10. This window was more for the money men than for the fans.
It’s been a decent window unblocking the squad with players that simply were not playing for the team and bringing in players that will be playing … also gives one or two young players a chance to move forward
Disappointed we didn't get the last attacking piece across the line. Maybe we will have to see a bit more of Dixon in cameos but I'd have liked some experience or a bit of a gamble like Tovide

Seen the tweet from Cawley so amended my post.
